On The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, he and White teamed up to play the roles of Adam and Eve in a hilarious skit. “Johnny Carson and Betty White appear as a divorcing Adam and Eve in this very funny Mighty Carson Art Players Skit on “The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson” in 1979,” the video’s description reads.

What Betty is up to these days

Even though Carson passed away back in 2005, White still lives on as she just had a birthday back in January. She’s an incredible 99 years old! She holds the record for the longest television career of any entertainer, spanning more than 80 years. Not only has she garnered several accolades throughout the years, but she’s still going!

She recently lent her voice for the Toy Story 4 film as the character ‘Bitey White’ who made another appearance in the 2019 TV series Forky Asks a Question (a spin-off of Toy Story 4). She hasn’t appeared in anything yet since those Pixar voice projects, according to her IMDb, but we hope to see more Betty soon – until she’s 199 🙂 !
